THE MYRADA EXPERIENCE

THE INTERVENTIONS OF A VOLUNTARY AGENCY - in the emergence and growth of
PEOPLE's INSTITUTIONS FOR SUSTAINED AND EQUITABLE MANAGEMENT OF MICRO WATERSHEDS

Second Edition                             Aloysius Prakash Fernandez    

First published in 1993, this publication describes MYRADA's experience in developing a participative management strategy for micro watersheds. It is based on my MYRADA's experience in Gulbarga a drought prone area in northern Karnataka. This pilot project was supported by the Swiss Development Cooperation in collaboration with the Government of Karnataka. It was perhaps the first instance where three partners (SDC,GOK and an NGO) were involved formally in intervention.
